SVU gets up in Arnold's grill

Oh, this is going to be one very tense hour of TV for Ah-nold. Well, he had it coming. You can't write stories like his. Instead, you gotta "rip them from the headlines." And, that's exactly what Law and Order: SVU plans on doing.

NBC's Special Victims Unit series will air an episode loosely based on the scandal surrounding the disgraced former California governor, including his secret son and the fallout from his extra-marital affair, TVLine.com reports. For the fictional TV take, a charming 50-something philanthropist named Andrew Raines has an affair with a woman close to his family's inner circle -- just like Schwarzenegger did with he and Maria Shriver's former housekeeper, Mildred Barnea. SVU's storyline will also involve the child produced as a result of the affair. When reached by TVLine.com, NBC declined to comment, other than to say that "SVU is fiction." [us weekly]
